I have been anticipating this game for months now, re-watched the films and had the theme tune running through my head in the moments before the game would finally open. But thankfully the wait is over, and I could enthusiastically dig into all that nostalgia and Jurassic goodness.

The team at Charede Gaming just wanted to take the time to talk to you all about our relaunch, how this has gone, recent changes we have made in the past week and what we have planned for the near future. We are hoping that eventually this update series will be a thing it its own right with the focus being on keeping the community in loop as to what is going on, giving you a chance to voice any concerns and get people involved with upcoming opportunities. Eventually I hope to not just do this with articles but also accompanying videos.

The re-launch

We are pleased with how the re-launch has gone and are looking forward to being able to build on this. We acknowledge that further work needs to be done and are aware of some issues that were reported to us. The majority of those problems have been fixed and were fixed within 24 hours of being reported.

We owe the success of the re-launch to our community whether you are someone who chooses to visit the site casually or someone who has officially signed up with a free membership. Either way the fact you are here and supporting us means a lot. So far we have had over 800 article reads, we are just short of 20 member accounts and we have a steady flow of daily traffic.

So far people have not chosen to utalise the comment system and we would love to know why. If you have any feedback about this that would help us whether it be positive or negative we would really love to hear from you. This will mean we can make any necessary changes and work with the community to improve the feature.

Recent changes

Since launch we have made the following changes to the website;

- Fixed several bugs.

- Started the process of sorting the website’s metadata and SEO.

- Redeveloped some graphical elements to improve them. We have 3 other visuals that are still in process of being updated.

- Filled out the tagging system which will help users using search functions to look for content. Search module positions to be added shortly.

Changes for the near future

Below is just a little insight in what is on our agenda for the near future;

- Re-introduction of the official Charede Gaming YouTube channel.

- New content with involvement from game developers and publishers. We can’t talk about this too much right now but we are in talks with some developers and publishers about some new series we have planned. These will be article, video and podcast based. More details to come in future once everything is organised.

- Finish the SEO and registration with google. This should help with search results and finding us. Please note that some of the old Charede Gaming website page searches are still showing up on google so if you get a broken link to the CG site when using google it is probably giving you the old page and not the new one. Once google has crawled the site a few times this should settle down.

- Planning to add some default avatars and profile backgrounds anyone who signs up will be able to use.

- Slight rebuild to live stream directory area so you will not only be able to see the live status of Charede Gaming official streams but also watch them directly on the website.

- Enable downloads area. This will give people access to both free and paid downloadable that we plan to offer to our community.

- Shop area – We plan to implement the shop area. This will be a points store. You accrue points by using the website, getting achievements, posting comments, and sharing articles etc. We don’t think people are at present fully aware of the points system, how to gain points and what these will be used on but we will clarify this through an update and discussion page on the matter.

Hi everyone, A lot has happened over the last three months, and I think it is about time I need to announce a couple of things I had been holding off on declaring till they were finalised. Because there is so much to go through, I will be splitting this across two or three posts over the next couple days. I understand that some aspects of the news/announcements may seem drastic, but do not be…

Another day and another review and this time I dug through my long list of reviews in progress to dig up a fun little city-builder called Kingdoms and Castles by Lion Shield that I have been meaning to finish covering for a while now. Just a quick word ahead of diving into this review I played this a while back before its release and I intended to release this review back then. However, due to…

I want to begin by saying that the following are just my thoughts based on playing multiple early access games ranging from open-world sandbox to first-person shooter zombie games to battle simulator games to underwater survival games to dungeon crawls and everything in between. The premise of this piece will hopefully be to be the grounds to spark a constructive conversation about early access games on any platform, may it be on pc or console,…

I have had the opportunity for the past few months to spend some of my time on an interesting game called Blue Collar Astronaut by Mutated Software which was released in March 2017 for PC, Mac, Xbox One, Wii U, PS4, PS3 and PSVita. Blue-Collar Astronaut is a challenging physics game set in space that harks back to the days of arcade-style games. The game revolves around a comical adventure exploring the difficulties of achieving…

Recently I have been playing an interesting game called Party Hard Tycoon; a spinoff of Party Hard and Party Hard 2. The tycoon variant takes the player on the journey of making a profit from running parties rather than being the one crashing them. I still have yet to fully explore all the game has to offer since my party business seems to be crashing and burning at a specific point in the game I…

If you’ve been following the website, you would know that we here at Charedegaming.com have been following the enticing game of Aftercharge for several months now, so it was only natural that we sat down with Laurent from Chainsawesome Games to talk about their game. Laurent is the communications manager for Chainsawesome Games. For those that don’t know what this game is about, it’s an asymmetrical first-person shooter game that pits six invisible robots against…

On Friday, January 26, 2018, the Aftercharge developers, Chainsawesome Games, had their third alpha test. Aftercharge is a 3v3 game that pits 3 invisible robots called Workonics against 3 invincible guards named Enforcers. The goal of the Workonics is to destroy all 6 of the extractors while the Enforcers are trying to track them down and destroy them. The end goal for Chainsawesome Games for Aftercharge is to make it so that each side has…
